PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS WOD WILL HAVE TO BE MODIFIED FOR THE GROUP-CLASS ENVIRONMENT! Your instructor will assess how best to get everyone through some version of “Linda,” but it’s impossible for each person to have her or his own 3 bars.
With that in mind, here are scaling options for today’s WOD, courtesy of the CrossFit BrandX forums:
———————–
Big Dawgs:
As RX‚Äôd
Pack:
Either Scale the weight back
or
Drop the sets doing 10-8-6-4-2 with the rx‚Äôd weights.
Puppies:
Scale the weight back and drop the sets as shown above.
Check out this thread for an excellent discussion on power and scaling. Toward the end JDG discusses Linda.http://www.crossfitbrandx.com/index.php/forums/viewthread/3590

Wrist (and the rest of me) can’t handle the volume of full Linda right now.
So I did 6-5-4-3-2-1:
deadlifts @185#
bench press @55# (only thing that really bothered the wrist)
full squat cleans @83#
16:23 minutes
Felt really slow except for the bench which was on the too light side of scaling.

Linda, full 10-9-8…3-2-1
92# deadlift, 41# for floor press and cleans.
35:36
As usual, deadlifts took the most time.
Practiced with purple string, 3 sets of 3 dead hangs then 4 sets of 1 where I held myself at the top for a count of 10. Then practiced push ups, 4 sets of 10.
